Primary Market Strategies (Economic Sustainability)

• Create a CENTER (village center, Main St., downtown…???)

– Which becomes your social & civic center of the community & commerce

• Provide HOUSING– Various sizes, styles & pricing– For elderly, teachers, police & firemen

• ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT– Small Business Development (in center)– R&D/Lt. Industrial (gateways/Surrett)

Where are the best places?

• Combine uses for synergy…Schools, Civic Buildings and Commerce…

• Professional offices near City Hall…they all need to eat lunch…and go to Post Office…

• High School football…stop for pizza/ice cream…go to the Library…
